"Jason?" I whimpered.
The boy appeared out of no where, dark hair falling into his blood shot eyes.
"What?" His voice was harsh.
"I'm sorry."
"About what?"
"Everything."
I didn't even exactly know what I did.
It happened to quickly for me to even process.
Man do I wish Ashton was here to help me.
He let out a cruel laugh. "To late for that love. My life's already over."

I pursed my lips at the memory, a shiver running through me.
I lost one boy.
I wasn't going to lose another.
"Avery." Michael said in a quiet voice, since the others were sleeping.
I looked at him, as he snapped me out of my daze. "Yes?"
His eyes searched my face, yet I learned to wipe my face clean of emotion.
"You okay?"
I wanted to tell him the truth, how I was never really fine at all...but I lied.
"Yeah." I said through gritted teeth.
He gave me a concerned look.
I started crumble, but I had to stay strong. His eyes were so green in the rising sunlight,
And they looked so sad and concerned...
Stop it.
The walls you have built are strong, and you have to keep them that way
"Yeah I am."
